Quote Of The Day By Beyoncé: 'The Most Alluring Thing A Woman Can Have Is...'

Celebrities come and go, but few manage to remain as captivating and relevant over decades as Beyoncé has. She has undeniable star power, and simply mentioning her name is enough to grab attention. The multiple Grammy winner first rose to fame as a member of "Destiny's Child" in the late 1990s, but while the group eventually faded from the spotlight, she went on to establish herself as a global pop culture icon. She released her debut solo album, "Dangerously in Love," in 2003, introduced her sensual alter ego Sasha Fierce, and changed pop culture forever with "Single Ladies" in 2008.

But it's not just her discography that makes her so iconic. Time and time again, she's proven to be a girl's girl by consistently supporting other women in the industry and by celebrating other artists and standing up for them in the face of misogyny. The "Naughty Girl" singer has gone through major life changes and genre experimentation, while captivating audiences. These and more are why Beyoncé is today's quote of the day.

"The most alluring thing a woman can have is confidence." Beyoncé shared this gem during a 2011 interview with Cosmopolitan (via Vibe). When asked how women can spice things up in their relationships, the artist shared what works for her but insisted that nothing matters more than being confident.

It's easy to look up at women like Beyoncé and want to be like them. For most people, the solution would be better hair, improved features, a stunning figure and the likes. But according to the "Diva" crooner, none of these can replace confidence. "You have to feel good about yourself to make others feel good about you," she explained in the 2011 Vibe interview. This is why it's possible to have stunning looks and still not come off as confident, sexy, or alluring.

A confident person shows others that they believe they have attributes worth paying attention to, which puts the focus on the best parts of them and not the flaws, which we all have. Being confident doesn't erase flaws; it spotlights the better bits and invites others to do the same. The singer also shared that confidence is something you work at; not something that just appears. The secret? Doing things that make you feel great. Wearing clothes you feel comfortable in, choosing a full glam or a makeup-free look, sticking with six-inch heels or a ballet flat — it doesn't matter. As Beyoncé puts it, "you have to find out what works for you."

However, she added one small caveat. Finding what works for you doesn't mean never experimenting. In fact, trying something new can boost your confidence if it works, or teach you more about yourself if it fails. The aim is feeling comfortable in yourself and your choices because confidence emanates, glows, and attracts. It's impossible to hide.

• "Power's not given to you. You have to take it."

• "Women have to take the time to focus on our mental health—take time for self, for the spiritual, without feeling guilty or selfish. The world will see you the way you see you, and treat you the way you treat yourself."
